Berwick, PA (It's about 15 mins. away from Bloomsburg, so I commuted my first 3.5 years, then I moved to Bloomsburg)
At Bloomsburg, I major in…
Secondary Ed. English (the BEST major there is!)
Right now, I’m most interested in…
Living life and becoming a fantabulous teacher!
My favorite musical artist is….
I've quite a few, but at the moment it's Needtobreathe and Mumford and Sons
My favorite movie is….
Again, like the music question, there are so many, but at the moment I'd have to say
One thing I like to do in my spare time is…
SING! I sing in the BU Concert Choir, at my church, and pretty much all the time! The Concert Choir has a few shows this semester, so if you're interested in that kind of thing let me know - you should totally come see us perform!

My favorite teachers were the ones who…
Cared! A teacher should be kind, caring, competent, and committed (Dr. Starkey's 4 essential qualities of an excellent teacher). I've had a few teachers that exemplify these qualities and they really do make a world of difference!
But I didn’t like classes in which…
Teachers did not engage their students. How boring is a class that you just sit through? You might as well stay home and sleep! When I show up to class I want to learn and engage, and some teachers just don't care to allow that, but the good ones always do!
In this class, I’m most nervous about…
I don't know that I would call it nerves, but I would say I'm most concerned about getting the most out of everything we do. I don't want this to be 'just another class' for anyone, I want us to really dive in and learn everything we can.
In this class, I’m most excited about…
Everything! I have been excited about this class ever since I scheduled it, and I can't wait to dive into our literature and learn all about how to apply these awesome materials in a classroom setting! How unique an opportunity we get to engage the very ones (the children) who will shape our own future? I think that's pretty cool!
If there’s one thing you should know about me as a student, it’s…
You've probably picked up on this by now if you've stuck around long enough to read this whole thing, but I LOVE to learn! I wholeheartedly agree with the idea that teachers should be lifelong learners, and in my mind I'm just getting a jump start on that by going to school! I never want to stop learning!
If there’s one thing you should know about me in general, it’s…
I'm a pretty easy-going person. I love to have fun and I'm usually up for anything. I like meeting new people and trying new things, and I try to not waste time being unhappy. There's a lot of bad in the world and life, but there's also a lot of good - and I'm out to find all the good! I'm pumped for a new semester; it's my last one and I want to live it up!
